What is traceability?
Traceability is the ability to share information about a product along its supply chain, across production, processing, and distribution.
Effective traceability provides information about a product's journey from the farm to the end consumer. It’s a way of keeping track of information at every stage of a product’s journey, and the ability to share that information when needed.
All participants along the supply chain have a role to play in traceability. This includes food producers, suppliers, freight, logistics, food processing, and storage.
What is a traceability system?
Traceability systems come in many forms and will vary depending on the needs of the business and its supply chain.
Traceability is not defined by a specific system or technology. Information may be recorded manually, on paper, or automated through an electronic, digitalised system.

Traceability of produce
Being able to track where your produce has come from and gone to will help you respond quickly if something goes wrong, and will prevent people becoming ill.
What is traceability?
Traceability is the ability to track produce through all stages of its production, processing and distribution.
What are the requirements?
Primary producers and primary processors of berries, leafy vegetables and melons must have a system in place that can identify from whom their produce was received; and to whom their produce was supplied.
These requirements are under primary production and processing standards for horticulture for berries, leafy vegetables and melons.
What does this mean for me?
For primary producers, you must know details of where and who your harvested produce goes to, from the premises it was grown on.

As consumers demand more transparency around what they are eating, NSW DPI is encouraging fresh food producers to use technology to track and trace a product’s journey from paddock to plate. Biosecurity incursions, food safety recalls or emergencies such as floods or bushfires need rapid responses to protect the supply chain and consumers but gathering this information takes time. Until now, that is.
A pilot study using GS1 data standards and a GS1 Digital Link QR code to create a digital map of products in the NSW cherry and potato industries has the potential to change that. Study results showed that using an integrated digital traceability system Paddock to supermarket traceability can improve industry competitiveness, buyer confidence and market access for horticultural products produced in NSW.
In a new era of food security challenges, traceability provides transparency of a product’s provenance and where it is in the supply chain, providing consumers with confidence in a high-quality product. By working with growers, the study improved understanding of what is required on-farm to enable traceability and what the benefits would be to others along the supply chain.
